President Obama's job approval in Ohio has dropped significantly in the last two months, dipping under the 50% mark for the first time, according to a new poll by Quinnipiac University. In the last Quinnipiac poll in Ohio taken in early May, Obama enjoyed a healthy 62% job approval rating, with only 31% disapproving. Today, Obama's job approval stands at 49%, with 44% disapproving - a twenty-five point net drop in just eight weeks.
Not surprsingly, Obama has seen a corresponding drop among voters' approval of his handling of the economy: two months ago he had a net +21 approval (57/36), today it is -2 (46/48).

Any further eerosion like this and he might only win re election by 20 points instead of 30.
It’s starting to get bad when lefty pollsters can’t keep Obutt over 50%.
Crappy handling of the auto industry’s crisis meets cap and trade legislation = midwest turning against Obama.
But the damage has been done, Obama got Frankenstein elected.
Ridiculous.
Barring some unknown miracle, Barry’s ratings will undoubtedly continue to fall overall nationwide. Let the jackarse back a 2nd stimulus bill.....
This is great news for Kasich’s run for governor and Rob Portman’s run for the senate.
Time for ACORN to put in some overtime.
Who’s Obama?
Zerobama is going down
Why should he care? He has over 3 more years to do damage before he faces another election.
So soon old. So late smart...
No problem.
THe MSM just needs to ramp up their propaganda there and report that
-the stimulus is working wonderfully
-a million jobs were created in Ohio this month alone due to Obama’s policies
-The economy is back on track
-the stock market is up and everyone’s 401K is back to pre-Sept 2008 levels
-Home sales are up
What? None of this is true?! BFD! Truth has not mattered to the MSM in YEARS, particularly since 2008 and it should not matter now. If they just repeat the things above, Obama’s approval rating will be through the roof.
You can't drop any farther than zero.
all meaningless if there’s no election...
WooHoo! Go Bucks!!!
and you guys voted for him because he was gonna repeal NAFTA for ya....HA HA!
At what percentage can we throw the lame bum out?
if he spends the next 3 yrs. as an annoying TV character while all of his whacko proposals go to the back of the Congressional deep freezer, I think we can all live with that.
I agree with you completely.
It shows you how stupid they were. I am glad though they are waking up
